Bowhunting Accessories

I like to shoot feathers. They're quiet and forgiving when shooting off the shelf. Before season starts, I apply a coat of feather waterproofing to the fletching on all my arrows. Not because I intentionally hunt in the rain, but to protect them from sudden downpours. Once, while bowhunting for elk, we were in the backcountry a good 4-miles from camp when a sudden rainstorm broke open and dumped 1-2 inches of rain on us in less than thirty minutes. I was lucky to have my arrows waterproofed or the rest of my day would have been spent drying out feathers. Be prepared!

I personally like to replace mine every year, then I use last year's string as my backup. Be sure to install the new string before you start to practice in order to make sure it is stretched out properly.

Now take a look at the string silencers. Do they need to be replaced? What shape is your arrow rest in? Keeping a few spare parts handy for quick repairs is always a good idea.
